| Countless questions. Questions not even google can answer. Questions that are not easy to verify. Questions assumed to be phrased differently. When I ask about sadness, the assumption is depression and vice versa. Not exclusively one or the other. The same with overwhelm and stress with worry and an... |

| On gaining this form of alexithymia, I wonder if going emotional expression is truly beneficial. Pre-pill self got no real benefit from it. It's a life long huge problem next to my chronic upper respiratory nuisances. So how about post-pill self? So far, crying gave me more headaches and tension tha... |

| Contemplating whether I need a shorter hair this summer... And have it straighten. Also for dealing with the hot flash like symptom at the back of my neck. It's not physical, it's emotional. Or; I just need a trim and some coloring. Because it's a bit uneven with black at top and dark brownish like ... |

| My inner self is chaotic and childlike. I wish to be the opposite. My inner monologue is very loud. Then I found a solution to tone it down, along with other internal less voluntary noises ones. And my inner monologue is nonverbal, nonvisual, non-auditory visceral like patterns that can be abstract,... |

| My most recent decisions are supposed to freak me out into avoiding and escaping whatever consequences that might be. Usually, I'd be torn into different directions in the inside, between false caution disguised as reason and my conscious wants. Half the time, I was able to transform it into excitem... |

| I used to. I need something flatter, looser and doesn't make me feel the tightness below the bust because it sort of irritates my rib bones whenever I inhale, feeling like I might suffocate because of it. Just wanting the kind that hides the bulge of my nipples; so I had a preference with crop tops,... |

| I've been hyperemotional for most of my life. The realization that I cannot control myself even at the age of 6 gave me a lot of self grudge, the realizations that I was different at age 8 went with a mix of contradicting paths became this constant thing that just torns me in different directions.

If I ever had a chance to have any routine and order, at all -- I had to figure how to adjust my schedule around the volatile sleep and meal times, and... |

I wish I'm serious all the time.
But I'm not. Not voluntarily at least.
I'd rather be at least at the right time and place.
Now I have the means to be the person I want to be...
I've yet to learn, relearn, unlearn habits of my too volatile former self.
Oh, but sure.
I do it all the time. |

Else, might as well just expose me to unnecessary stress and more noise. Everyone should know better that I don't d... |

| This is the kind of power parents have. Really. And it's just this easy to raise an autistic hating their autism. Had I've been raised this way, I would've killed myself for an insignificant detail that sets me apart from everyone I've known. Distance myself more, had my family ever emphasized and t... |

Yes, it's an ultimatum that still remain. I (still) refuse to clean up my own parent's mess and maintai... |

Blood pressure issues never a problem when it's perpetually below normal. Heart beat is always weird regardless of what... |
